field open
The 12th annual running of
the Eastern Oregon Half
Marathon will begin at 8 a.m.
Saturday, May 28. Runners
will start from Service Creek
and proceed along "scenic"
Highway 19 to the finish in
front of the Arco station in
Spray.
The half -marathon is run in
conjunction with the two-day
Spray Rodeo, which includes
two big dances, two parades
and "two days of the wildest
rodeo you'd ever want to see,"
according to Lloyd Little,
mar .(.hon director.
Little said the race has
grown steadily from its five
runner start in 1966. Last year
over 100 runners participated
and in the past, the race has
drawn the likes of Gov. Straub
and his family.
Trophies will be awarded to
the top three contestants in
five divisions; under 18, 18-29,
30-40, over 40, and women's.
All who finish will receive a
certificate of accomplish
ment. Little said there is a $2 entry
fee, if received before May 27.
A few entries will be accepted
Saturday morning with a
small late entry charge. Of
ficial entry blanks can be ob
tained by writing: Lloyd
Little, P.O. Box 152, Spray,
97874. Youngsters under the
age of 18 must have guard
ian's written consent.
School Board
has busv session
Morrow County School dis
trict received a land offer for
two school sites in the Irrigon
area from Sancy Land Co.
Monday, May 16. The land
owners were offering proper
ty for $4,000 per acre within
the city limits and $2,750
outside the city limits.
No action was taken by the
board pending further offers
of land by other developers.
The district is looking for
approximately 20 acres of
land for future school sites to
be built when growth war
rants. The lone school district well
will be readied for use due to
the city well going dry. Until
the well is set up for operation
however the school will not be
supplied with any lawn irri
gation water.
Beginning this fall Morrow
County High School students
will be required to take 4
years of English. Currently
the requirement has been for
3 years. The decision was
made because the board felt
the district was graduating
seniors with inadequate Eng
lish backgrounds.
Contracts for classified em
ployees were issued as well as
those for extra duty employ
ees (coaches). All previous
coaching positions were offer
ed to the same people filling
them this year. Tom Sheer,
golf coach; and Charles
Lutsch, assistant football
coach, resigned from their
coaching duties. Sheer also
resigned from his Heppner
High School teaching position.
Other resignations were
accepted from Ruby Sheer,
Heppner Jr. High and Inez
Irwin, Heppner Jr. High.
Debbie McCoy was hired as a
kindergarten teacher at A.C.
Houghton Elementary School
at Irrigon.
Construction is nearing
completion on Heppner's new
dental clinic and should soon
be ready for its new occupant,
Dr. Lee Hazen, who now
resides in Portland.
The $50,000, four operatory
clinic is set to open June 15
and Hazen is now in the
process of moving his family
to Heppner.
Hazen was selected from a
list of three dentists who
indicated they were interested
in moving to Heppner, accord
ing to Bob Ewell, director of
the Tri-County Health Ser
vices Commission.
Ewell said the search for a
dentist was handled through
the Oregon Dental Associa
tion. A summary and outlook
of the community was sent to
all 1976 June graduates of the
Oregon Dental School and to
all dentists who passed the
Oregon Dental Exam. Another
of the applicants who ex-
Huston visits
brother here
Woodrow Huston, Fair
banks, Alaska, is here visiting
his brother, Myron Huston.
This is his first trip to Heppner
in thirty years. He says it has
grown and changed considerably.

pressed interest in the posi
tion, Dr. Bryce Hill, is now
building his own clinic in
Boardman on Columbia Pacif
ic Resource property.
Several local residents have
worked closely with Hazen
and gave important support in
finding the new dentist. Ewell
pointed in particular to Mike
Murray and Dr. Harold Hu
ber, calling their work a
"bond of cooperation."
Hazen was in Heppner
Monday to meet with Ewell
and Judge Paul Jones con
cerning the possibility of com
bining the parking area for the
new building with that of the
Medical Clinic. The city en
gineer is now in the process of
surveying the lot to determine
what changes need to be
made.
Ray and Norma French
join beef task force
Ray and Norma French, of
Heppner, have been appointed
Morrow County co-chairmen
for the Oregon Beef Develop
ment Taskforce, according to
state chairman Richard Nich
ols. The Oregon committee is
part of a national organization
established to mobilize the
nation's cattle producers and
feeders to vote 'yes' for the
proposed Beef Marketing de
velopment program. If ap
proved, the program will
promote the industry through
increased consumer educa
tion, research and foreign
market development by rais
ing between $30 and $40
million per year.
More than 80 cattle or
ganizations around the coun
try have endorsed the pro
gram, including the Oregon
Cattlemen's Association, Beef
Council and CowBelles. Also,
many of Oregon's agricultural
and commodity groups have
expressed approval of the
plan.
The program will be funded
by producers and feeders
through investment of 30 cents
per $100 of their cattle sales.
Under the plan, this amount
will automatically be de
ducted by the buyer. The
funds will be administered by
a board of working cattle producers.
